the reason there are so many threads is because it keeps getting moved to the business section, which is annoying and i don't really see why...

Should threads be moved elsewhere and another is started up it would be really helpful, to those that might not navigate around the forum so much or even realise (those on mobile devices) there are other sections, for others to link on the thread where they might find it...

not sure why it's not allowed in the general section, it's the post office! not a restaurant.


anyway i'm self employed and rely on the post office, i just went by and it's still closed, same sign. i would assume it's not coming back, but we shall see on monday.

Urgh, my parcel appears to be stuck in the Forest Hill Road PO - I posted an urgent overnight parcel on Monday evening and it never arrived. Now I've got no way of retrieving it or contacting anyone about it, as Parcelforce have no record of it and no one is answering the phone at the FHR PO. There's not so much as a note on the door saying what is happening.


Does anyone knows anything about when it will reopen? Obviously I hope everyone who works there is OK.

I passed the Post Office yesterday and today. The queue is out the door and down the street and there is also a queue there for Barclays, a bus stop and people walking along the road. There was no social distancing because of the number of people- the whole area is a disaster waiting to happen

Are you sure the M and S queue wasn't going down Chesterfield grove...that's where it was going yesterday?

It is today, but was quiet when I went past yesterday afternoon.



Just used the PO, was about a 20 min wait.

A bit difficult to do IF say I dunno... they don't have staff due to self isolation...

Just putting that thought out there!

It's easy to say this and that should be operating how you expect them to do so but people really need to think of others too.

Queued at Walworth rd branch for 2 hours to post something back. That was being there an hour before opening hours. The amount of people waiting was enormous! It had been closed for a few days and seemed like a one off to be open. Was exhausted mentally after, couldn't wait to get home.

      Cashpoint theft/robbery warning - Tesco, East Dulwich Road

      Just astonishing - how do they do it? Well done for being so on the ball.

      Shocking - so fast. Machines can have a false device for inserting your card into and then they retain it. Your bank should return your money

      Cashpoint theft/robbery warning - Tesco, East Dulwich Road

      By thejournalist · Posted

      FYI East Dulwich neighbours: I was in the middle of a cash withdrawl at the cashpoint at the Tesco Express on ED road (the one next to the Esso petrol station) when a man appeared beside me waving his hands over the screen and saying not to use it because it had just taken his card. He then dissapeared and I cancelled the withdrawl. No card was returned. It took me literally 30 seconds (max) to realise something wasn't right and 'freeze' the card on my mobile/banking app. I immediately got a txt message from my bank saying a transaction had just been declined, and then another. I logged in to app and £251 had already been taken. This all happened increadibly quickly - the whole incident from first encounter to money being taken and me freezing card was probably around 3 minutes. The guy must have somehow seen me put my PIN number in. It's possible there was some kind of card skmming involved, but I don't know for sure. The man was around 5ft 6/7, black and wearing a covid-type face mask. I don't remember what clothes he was wearing. I got the feeling (mainly from his voice and eyes) that he wasn't young - maybe mid-30s to mid-40s (but I can't be sure). Obviously I repoted to police.

      It would be incredible if the community supported small businesses rather than a chain (Gail's being a very large chain).   Sadly, consumers don't realise their power - as you can see also by the number of coffee cups etc that are still being bought and contribute to landfill - it' not hard to be responsible, just inconvenient.
